NameHibbing Historical Society & Museum
Brief DescriptionHistory of "the Town that Moved"
TypeAttraction
CategoryMuseum
DescriptionThe museum contains a number of interesting displays including:
· A movie as you enter. This movie gives you a perspective of the time by the people who lived there. This is followed by a program about the rich history of the St. Louis County Fair.
· A model of Hibbing as it looked in 1893, when the town was laid out. The population at this time was mainly comprised of loggers and a few miners.
· The Topic Islands which use artifacts and pictures to illustrate various themes of life throughout days gone by.
· Revolving Displays that will allow the museum to exhibit items from other museums as well as items of local interest.
· Logging and mining tools of the past are also on display.
· The Hibbing Almanac takes one through time decade by decade. This “timeline” shares some of the important events in Hibbing, as well as globally.
· Our “Little House”, helps one to imagine just how all of these buildings were so carefully moved. It also allows a view into a house of yesteryear.
· The most celebrated display in the museum is the scale model of North Hibbing as
it looked in 1913. This 8’ by 16’ model is accompanied by
a ten-minute narration. The narration, with the help of colored lights, tells of the history of this unique town and why it was forced to move.
